3 Reasons a Standing Seam Metal Roof is Cost-Effective

3 Reasons a Standing Seam Metal Roof is Cost-Effective

While asphalt shingle roofs remain king, standing seam metal roofing is undeniably gaining traction in the country. This specific type of metal roofing is a fantastic option for both residential and commercial properties.  Standing seam metal roofs have a higher upfront cost than many other roofing types, but it’s worth the extra expense.

Austin Pro Siding, Windows & Roofing, one of the leading roofing and window replacement contractors in the region, offers three good reasons.

3 Reasons a Standing Seam Metal Roof is Cost-Effective
  • Innovative structure – Ordinary metal roofs usually require on average 70 exposed screws per square of the roof. This can mean 2,500-3,000 screws or 3,000 potential leaks down the road in a typical home. This isn’t a problem with standing seam metal roofs because the metal is held down with clips located beneath the panels. With the screws hidden and the clips secured, they should not develop leaks, allowing you to save on repair costs.
  • Reliable water resistance – Standing seam metal roofs are made up of several panels interlocked to one another, with very few seams, making them less prone to leaks. Specifically designed to be taller than cascading rainwater, the standing seams of a metal roof installed by professional roofers offer superior weather resistance.
  • Minimal maintenance – These roofs need very little maintenance throughout their life span. While they will need to be inspected proactively as with any other roof, it is unlikely to merit frequent costly repairs. When installed by an expert contractor, a metal roof can provide decades of topnotch performance.

If you’re looking to invest in a standing seam metal roof for your home, turn to Austin Pro Siding, Windows & Roofing.
